Shorah's Ristorante,

27 Foster Street, Worcester, 797-0007.

The food's great, the portions towering, the service cordial, the setting comfortable, and the prices low. On top of that, there's creativity and imagination in every dish, from the roasted portabello mushroom appetizer to the veal Atlantic topped with fresh lobster meat. Aim for non-Centrum nights, when it's less crowded.

Price Range: $9 - $16.
